Art for 5 Day's-Day 2 "Vintage Mini Album & Altered Paper Bag & Gift!!!

Day 2:  Art for 5 Days

Today I bring you a couple of my favorite creations..

that's right I had a hard time choosing only one for Day 2.

So I decided there is no rules to this sharing of my Art for 5 Days...

Why not share what I really love!!

First up is my 

"True Beauty Vintage Mini Album"

The Marion Smith Designs Team has created a mini album farewell! Vintage is my middle name with a twist of shabby chic! I have been collecting many vintage inspired items such as mother of pearl buttons, lace, old book, photos, little bits & pieces....etc. I was flipping through the beautiful paper collections of Marion's (or I should say my scraps..lol). I created this shabby little lovely with Marion's papers (Never Grow Up, Motley, Garment District, Nirvana), along with her Junque & Gems, Doilies, resin flowers. I created the flowers (on cover) with her Bloom Tool, Dies and papers! I felt that the papers needed a vintage backdrop...so old book pages it was!! This mini is simple, vintage and busting with a shabby chic feel......simply love!
Hope you all enjoy flipping through the inspiration of "Something Old with Something New"!!!!

You can see more details and close up's on my blog, here.

I just love the way this mini album came out.

and Marion's papers have so many images you

can fussy cut out and use as embellishments.

and

another paper bag for you to enjoy....

Grand Printable Mini Kit-Artsy Addicts

 Over at the Artsy Addicts Blog today is my post of this Christmas Memories 2012 mini album using the Grand Mini Kit by Marion Smith. You can purchase this kit at www.marionsmithdesigns.com under mini book section. This Grand Kit has rich and beautiful prints with Chevron prints, flare of distress edges and collage pages.

 Tip-look in your local stores Christmas section for great embellishments for a dollar...snowflakes are so fun to create with and give a little sprinkle. Washi tape and glitter make such a wow factor in your minis.

 Grand Printable kit makes wonderful cards as well....here is a Christmas card "JOY", love the little Chevron reindeer....

Primrose Mini Book

 Here is my  Primrose Mini Book that I had the pleasure to create with this beauty...this little mini is full of simple pleasures and vintage flare. I love this mini so much that it's perfect for a Mother's Day gift for my special mom and mother-in-law. I can see this sitting on their nightstand with a crocheted doily and a pen to jot down their little thoughts of their day.

 Simply print out and cut away! I used chip board, brown paper with Distress Stain-Walnut ink and used multi-medium gel over the covers to give a leather feel. Adorn this little beauty with a wonderful find at a antique store this pretty lace trim. My binding is from Marion Smith's binding technique from her Journey Book. (special video for binding when you purchase the Journey Book).

 Printed my digital pages on white card stock, added some extra pages with the same card stock dyed with Vintage Photo reinker, water, perfect pearl powder mixture. Used my distressed edger on all the papers to give a worn look.

 Then comes the favorite part "embellishing" who wouldn't love it-added some vintage items I had in my stash, twine, little charms and Prima flowers. I believe that embellishments are the icing on the cake.

 Hop over to Artsy Addicts Blog for more pics and info on this little mini!

Supplies: 

Primrose Printable Mini Book Kit, White card stock, chipboard, Distress inks and stain (walnut ink, vintage photo), Prima flowers, vintage lace, buttons, twine, charms (7Gypsies, Tim Holtz)
